On December 2, Julien's Auctions is selling The Collection of Tompkins and Bush. The collection contains 465 lots of Michael Jackson memorabilia, 287 of them autographed.
Michael Bush and the late Dennis Tompkins were Michael Jackson's costume designers for 25 years, during Jackson's most successful period. They were the consignors of the signed Thriller jacket that Julien's sold for $1,800,000 in June 2011.
Almost all of the autographs in the Tompkins and Bush sale are a variation I'm not familiar with. I've only been looking at Jackson's autograph for a few years, though, and we have members here who have collected him for decades, so I'd appreciate your input and exemplars.
If you know Michael Jackson's autograph well, please look at a few images below from the auction and let me know what you think. Even better, browse the auction and upload any similar examples you have: http://www.julienslive.com/view-auctions/catalog/id/77/
Julien's is the world's premier auction house for Michael Jackson memorabilia, so they would know his autograph better than most of us. I'm just surprised I haven't seen this style before.
Thanks for your help.

I don't know why but I couldn't believe it. I went and checked and there it was. This just keeps getting worse.
There is a whole set of these. Remember when I mentioned the Ls were right on a bunch? I liked the L's, but hated the sig. Wonder if we can find the rest of them?

Sandy i tweeted it to you, Guys please be careful posing actual images on this discussion of Juliens auctions, they are already trying to shut this site down, please post them other places then post links to it,
Sandy,, I posted the one pic of Bush's - I can't post screen shots of his money pit, its an entire folder of his mansion in progress of being renovated. lol.
Sandy MJFan here is the "Mansion" this was sent to me by MichelleJay couple weeks back, i didnt think it was relevant, but i guess now it is since he calls it a "money pit"
Didn't someone post a big signed poster a while back that Bush and Tompkins gave to a museum (and which appears to be genuine)? That had the same style for the T and D if I remember correctly.
The only way the signature/handwriting on the red is real IMHO is if the fabric was so slippery that it was impossible to write the N in one stroke and each letter would have to be done very carefully and deliberately.
